Subject: TRANSFER OF FUND /REPLY.
FROM MRS JOSEPHEN MPOYO
85 MONUMENT ROAD
Berea 2198
JOHANNESBURG,
SOUTH AFRICA
ATTN: Sir/Ms,With due respect, trust and humility, I write you this proposal, which I believe, would be of great interest to you. I found your contact while I was doing a private research on the Internet for a reliable and capable foreign partner that will assist me and my family.I am MRS JOSEPHEN MPOYO the WIFE of MR.MARTINS MPOYO (late) of Zimbabwe. During the current war against farmers in Zimbabwe and from the support of our President Robert Mugabe to claim all the white owned farms in our country, all the white farmers were ordered to surrender their farms to his party members and his followers. My husband who was one of the best farmers in our country and treasury of the farmer’s co-operation did not support his idea and so the party members invaded my husband’s farms and burnt everything in the farm, killed my husband and made away with a lot of items in my husband’s farm.After the death of my husband, I decided to move out of Zimbabwe because of our lives were in danger with the money that my husband kept in his hidden safe in our house. The amount contained in the safe in our house is US$9.5m( NINE Million Five Hundred Thousand US Dollars) and we decided to code the money and move to the Republic of South Africa where we deposited the money in a Security Company as a "VALUABLE ITEMS". So I decided to make contact with an overseas firm whom will assist me to move this money out of South Africa, because we are asylum seekers here in South Africa.
All l want you to do is to make arrangement and come down to Republic of South Africa, Johannesburg, and on your arrival, you will open a non-resident account in one of the commercial banks where the money will be transferred to your account oversea. This will only take two working days and thereafter we all can fly to your country for sharing and investments. I can not operate a bank account because we are assylum seekers and the Laws of South Africa, does not allow refugees financial rights So if you consider this proposal, we have agreed to give you 20% of the total sum for helping us to move this money out of south Africa and 5% will be mapped out for expenses both of us may incur during this transaction and 75% will be for me and my family to invest in your country. All I want is for you to furnish me your details and your personal phone and fax numbers and your email address for easy communication and more information.NOTE: That this transaction is 100% risk free and absolutely
confidential.Thanks and God bless you.Best Regard
MRS.JOSEPHEN MPOYO
